Visit to IIT Kanpur and Infosys

I could not resist the opportunity to travel back to Varanasi, barely
6 hours away by train, one weekend. Our previous trip here was in
December 2001 -- when the weather was much more bearable. I did not
plan for the extreme heat of the monsoon season. Still, Varanasi is
one of the most captivating and colorful cities I have visited
anywhere in the world -- full of pilgrims, con artists, entepreneurs,
and sadhus. Here is a view from Dasaswamedh Ghat, one of the most
popular bathing sites along the Ganges.
